there are so many things
going on
in the world
right
now
way more than enough
to
break us all
&
make us want to
give up
go away
stop
loving
living
where
or when
could we possibly
start
having normal
pieces
fractured lil baby pieces
of what we thought our lives once were
again
we are so tired
and definitely a good bit pissed off
but
we need everything we can put in alinement
so we can put together what the new normal will look like
if the vibe is high enough
we could be in for something really good
that's why I'm making time to focus
on the good energy
completely
having moments
not slathered
in the heavy muck
that our lives are trying to make it through
right now
making the decision
to have this moment
be my
breath of fresh air
to dive back into the fray
stronger than before.
pink bee balm
stress management tools
cats vs pickles
very soothing
2 pack for 10 bucks
the second wave of Phoebe birds
we've never had two rounds of chicks before
pretty pretty luna moth
just hangin by the front door
lil kit is excited for me to take an ootd pic

other than pajamas!

Columbine that volunteered in the backyard
humming birds loving the red bee balm in the front garden
the first item is up on PainterLeFay
the etsy shop
but that bee balm tho...
there was CAKE
there could be more cake too...
there is a GF Chocolate Cake Mix in the kitchen
do y'all like mixes as much as I do
making the big twig trellises
for the bittersweet to climb on
its better than letting the vines climb on everything
around them and kill all the nice planty friends
wild blueberries
we let the wildlife eat these
these wee lil plants wouldn't really give us
enough to do anything with
and I really like having something to give the
lovely lil beings that visit
one of the dandelion puffs from this year
finally got some mosses etc in the faux window box out back
so green
the first flush of wisteria was amazing
we've had this baby for 3yrs now
and this is the first year that we are having new buds
second flush is on the way!
the only peony in the garden
so far
had this one for a year
came back and was so pretty
I think it needs friends!
lilies!!!!
so many lilies!!!
random
I was able to organize my hand sewing kit
and
my crafty glue gun stuff
in separate containers no less
I'm definitely winning
ooooo
I almost forgot about the fluffy white iris!
I bought this one last year and I am so pleased that its doing great
it had 4 blooms this year
yay
always glad when things
survive after my guessing game of new gardener madness
lil Kit being the cute
oooo more lilies
the king of cute
oh, here's that plate that had the cake...
lets circle back to cake...
its not that my devices don't want to put the pics in the order that I want
its that the universe wants us to think about cake again...
I see you universe
agreed
cake is the best thing to think about twice
the new frog pond
I called it that bc I had that lil frog statue to put there...
wait for it...
pumpkin seeds

close up of our Fairy Grasslands
Black Eyed Susan decided to crash the party

I told them both that they are very welcome to stay as long
as they want
like
4evaaaaa plzzzzzz
deer have detected the young saplings that grow all around
and maybe a few of our hostas...
I am sad that the plants are lopped with the feasting
but the forest horse wants noms
and noms they will have
I will share
ooooo more lilies
here's the lilac
planted a year ago
one lil section of blooms this year
and they were glorious!
